Chapter 3413: Chapter 3415

But then she froze as he took a scarf directly from her wardrobe, rolled it up, and blindfolded her with it, tying a knot. “This way, you won’t feel uncomfortable,” he said.

Veronica felt like the remaining words were stuck in her throat, and she didn’t know what to say for a moment.

But I guess this can be considered as some progress for him.

Some things can’t be resolved all at once, they need to be tackled step by step…

After applying some medicated oil on Veronica’s shoulder, Mason suddenly hugged her.

“What’s wrong?” His sudden hug caught her off guard.

“Anyway, no matter how old we grow in the future, please don’t ever abandon me,” he whispered.

Veronica couldn’t help but smile and raised her hand to embrace him, saying, “How could that be? I am your sister, no matter how old we get, I will never abandon you.”

“Sister…?”

His eyelashes trembled slightly, but there was no blood relationship between them!

How long can we hold on without any blood relation?

The next day at school, Veronica ran into Daniel again.

She hesitated for a moment, “You…”

“Here, take this!” said Daniel as he reached into his pocket and pulled out a tube of ointment, then handed it directly to her.

She looked at the other person with some surprise and asked, “What’s this?”

“This ointment is quite effective in treating bruises. You can try it,” said Daniel. “Also, I said yesterday that I knew you because I heard that you had once bravely saved a child who fell into the water. Girls like you who dare to jump into the river to save others are rare!”

Veronica was stunned, obviously not expecting that what Daniel had heard was about her.

“Anyway, I’m sorry about yesterday. I hope this ointment will help with your injury!” After saying that, Daniel waved and left.

Veronica held the ointment and looked at Daniel’s back as he left, lost in thought.

Until a voice sounded in her ear, “What are you looking at?”

Veronica snapped out of her thoughts and said, “Nothing. What did the teacher ask you to do just now?” She looked at Mason standing next to her.

“He asked if I could participate in the class activities for our school’s anniversary,” said Mason.

“How did you respond?” she asked.

“I’ll participate in whatever activities your class participates in,” he said.

His response didn’t surprise her. It had always been like this since they were young. It seemed like he was just revolving around her.

When she was a child and went to school, he would wait for her at the school gate every day, crouching and watching for her to finish school.

Later, he wanted to go to school with her, so he skipped a grade to study together.

Any activity in school or outside tutoring, he would follow whatever she does. If she doesn’t do it, he won’t do it alone.

But people are individuals, and is it really good for him to follow her pace like this?

Although Mason is happy that her father still likes to stick to her like he did when she was a child, she is also secretly pleased. He always reminds her to hold onto him tightly, because whether the Barlow family will have a good or bad future depends on how long Mason can stay in the Barlow family.

But she hopes that Mason can become more independent, which would be better for him, right?

“You can still participate in the event even if I don’t join,” she said.

“Why should I participate in an event that you’re not attending?” he asked, seeming strangely puzzled.
